Make a Tambourine!

Make tambourines the easy and colorful way using Colorations® Washable Glitter Paint and tissue paper directly onto some pre-shaped paper mache tambourines.

These lively teachers attended a PACE Regional Workshop in Petaluma, California and learned about art in child development while making their own tambourines and experimenting with glitter paints, patterned tissue papers and a new stubby brushes, all shown in the photos above.

Cooperative Fabric Murals

Using a combination of BioColor® and Colorations® Liquid Watercolor, the staff from Stephen S. Wise Preschool in Los Angeles had a great time... Jackson Pollock style.

Working together, they created large canvas welcome banners to hang in their school and welcome new students. To help create the look, the educators, in addition to paintbrushes, used the One-Grip Paint Brush and the BioColor® Paint Scraper to spread the paint and watercolor over the canvas - mixing the colors and creating a colorful base.

These banners were created on light canvas, but you could also use old white sheets, remnant fabric or even the Cooper- ative Mural Art paper panels.
